Senior Counsel - Content Regulations

We are working with a leading technology client who are looking for a Senior Counsel to join the Safety & Law Enforcement Legal team.

The Safety & Law Enforcement Legal team provides critical support across Trust & Safety, Law Enforcement Operations, Product, Engineering, Communications, and Policy teams.

This Senior Counsel member must have experience with digital platform and content regulations (such as the E.U. Digital Services Act, U.K. Online Safety Act, and India’s Intermediary Guidelines).

Key responsibilities include:

• Partnering across their Legal and Policy teams to support regulatory compliance, inquiries, and engagement.
• Collaborating with their Privacy Legal, Product Legal, Policy, Engineering, Communications, and other internal partner teams to provide guidance and develop policies and tools that enable them to meet increasingly sophisticated and ever-shifting regulatory and legislative requirements.
• Collaborating cross-functionally with teams across the company — including Policy, Product, Engineering, and others in Legal — on safety- and compliance-related tooling, and developments in surveillance and safety laws.
• Assist in advising the Safety, Product, and Engineering teams in matters relating to the enforcement of their Terms of Service and Community Guidelines, obligations under platform and content regulations (e.g., E.U. Digital Services Act, U.K. Online Safety Act, and India’s Intermediary Guidelines).

Our assignments are predominantly full time, working on a hybrid model within the London area and surrounding suburbs.

If this sounds like you and you're looking for your next opportunity, we'd love to hear from you.

Why Join LOD?

People come to us for a whole range of reasons – they might be looking for time for their interests, for work alongside other projects, or just want a change. What they all have in common is a desire for high quality work coupled with a degree of control that traditional models can’t offer, but LOD can.

All of our LODs have worked at top tier firms or as part of major in-house teams. We only accept a small percentage of applications as we choose lawyers who are not only technically excellent, but who can work seamlessly with our client’s teams. This ensures we can offer our lawyers consistently high-quality assignments.

We can offer:

• Varied, challenging, career-enhancing work with market leading brands (from Google to Barclays, and Amex to adidas) as well as exciting growth companies.
• Flexibility and autonomy: you can work anything from full-time on site with a client to a few hours each week from home.
• Training and know-how, as well as support from our dedicated HQ Team.
• A variety of flexible models that include working at the client’s offices or remotely.
